jim cantore jos us. good morning. >> reporte we have begun at least a 36-hour period of what is going to be tropical storm-force winds, maximized tonight with hurricane-force winds probably around the midnht hour as we deal with very, very strong, we think, power outages. they are already beginning to roll . we have approximately 4,000 people without power on the island and we haven't gotten to the worst part of the storm yet. we have gusted to 51 miles per hour at the airport. most of the outages are in the southe province. trees and power lines are beginning to fail and it will only get worse. the biggest issue we have seen has been the bea erosion. there are cuts on the beaches with massive waves you see created in the way when the igor was a four that have created beach erosion. now there are just rocks showing. we'll be in for a beating, but we'll bring you coverage as long as we can. back to you. >> jim cantore from bermuda. thanks. >>> for more than igor's path let's go to janice. >> good morning.
